White Elm Drive is across Williamson Creek from 4808 William Cannon Drive and we oppose the proposed zoning change. We see this as the first of many changes that could result in commercial businesses all along William Cannon where there is now residential. We enjoy the fact that there are single family homes on both sides of Williamson Creek. With all the commercial development on the south side of William Cannon we don't see the need for changes on this side- especially since there is stillr much space in those developments that has not been built out. This is al big change  that willi impact our property values and livability in the future.

My family and I have lived here approximately four years and have enjoyed every moment of it. My wife and Ih have 2 children ages 6 and 2. We enjoy riding our bikes and walking through the neighborhood. We have noticed the kindness, friendliness, and generosity of other neighbors. Iti is a quiet and clean neighborhood and great for raising a family. Everyone enjoys improving and working on their houses and lawns. Which in the long run, will improve the value of the neighborhood and the beauty. Westcreek is an older neighborhood and it has been able to maintain its integrity as a great place to live. Changing 6110 Hill Forest into al high density single family residence, extending Brush Country to Monterrey Oaks, and adding commercial properties on Old Fredericksburg Road would be a devastation to the ambience and character of our HOME/negnborioo). If anyone on the planning commission hasn't driven in our neighborhood, please do. You will see a clean, beautiful, and lovely place where we call home. We have a distinct neighborhood and we would like to preserve it. These issues would add more traffic, litter, and a possible increase in crime due to easy access to the neighborhood and rezoning to a high density family resident. Not only that, it could and would decrease the value of our homes. Ic don't know what neighborhood the Planning Commission Board lives but,Ican guarantee if these issues were in theirs, they wouldn't want it. Austin talks about preservation, i.e the greenbelt, and conservation. This would destroy an area where nature is already established and would be destructive to the wildlife that lives there. Furthermore, it would pollute our aquifers and creek. Please do what it is right to help keep our neighborhood pristine.  Respectively, Lt..

My home is less than 300 lunderstand that the city council will be considering an application for a zoning change for 4808 William Isupport the City of Austin Planning Commission Staff recommendation that the subject property remain There are plenty of available commercial spaces at the major intersections around us and no pressing need for mid-block commercial expansion, especially, expansion that encroaches upon Williamson Creek. Austin recently won a coveted 6 year platinum award for our water quality. This was a culmination of city and community efforts to keep our water clean. Rezoning would put pressure on an already sensitive area as the proposed property is located on the Edwards Aquifer Critical and' Transition Zone, as well as the Williamson Creek-Recharge Zone. The property extends completely across Williamson Creek from one bank to the next and is not limited midway as most property lines do along the creek area. This is of critical concern as Williamson Creek is prone to flash flooding when we are blessed with heavy rains. Wildlife sighted along the creek banks includes foxes; rabbits; deer; owls and migrating birds; and many other reptile and wildflower species native to' Texas all of which are an important part of the food chain. Itis great fun for children growing up in the neighborhood who explore the dry creek bed during the spring and summer. In the rainy season, you canl hear the roar of the water sweeping through the creek as Iami not opposed to change that is well-thought out and respectful of the environment. However, Iknow that more commercial property mid-block to the Williamson Creek Greenbelt area will add to the already evident lisplacemenv/migration of native species into our neighborhood due to loss of native habitat. For the foregoing reasons, Iurge you to vote to keep the permitted zoning of the property at 4808 William  ft. across Williamson Creek from 4808 William Cannon Drive. Cannon Drive.
